1 Amakhosi 19
1 UAhabi wasetshela uJezebeli konke uElija ayekwenzile, labo bonke ababulalayo, bonke abaprofethi, ngenkemba.
Bere a Ahab duu fie no, ɔkaa nea Elia ayɛ nyinaa ne sɛnea wakunkum Baal adiyifo nyinaa no kyerɛɛ Isebel.
2 Khona uJezebeli wathuma isithunywa kuElija esithi: Kabenze njalo onkulunkulu, bengezelele njalo, uba ngalesisikhathi kusasa ngingenzi impilo yakho ibe njengempilo yomunye wabo.
Enti Isebel de saa nkra yi kɔmaa Elia se, “Sɛ ɔkyena sesɛɛ na minkum wo, sɛnea woakum nkurɔfo yi a, anyame no nkum me bi.”
3 Esekubonile, wasukuma, wahamba ngenxa yempilo yakhe, wafika eBherishebha engeyakoJuda, watshiya khona inceku yakhe.
Elia tee nkra no, osuroe, enti oguan de peree ne ti. Ɔkɔɔ kurow bi a ɛwɔ Yuda a wɔfrɛ no Beer-Seba, gyaw ne somfo wɔ hɔ,
4 Kodwa yena wahamba uhambo losuku enkangala, wafika wahlala ngaphansi kwesihlahla serotemu, wacela ukuthi umphefumulo wakhe ufe, wathi: Kwanele, khathesi, Nkosi, thatha impilo yami, ngoba kangingcono kulabobaba.
na nʼankasa nantew da mu nyinaa kɔɔ sare so. Ɔkɔtenaa dutan bi a na ayɛ frɔmfrɔm ase, na ɔbɔɔ mpae sɛ anka onwu. Ɔkae se, “Nea mahu no ara dɔɔ me so, Awurade. Twa me nkwa so na minnye nsen mʼagyanom.”
5 Esecambalele elele ngaphansi kwesihlahla esithile serotemu, khangela-ke, khonokho ingilosi yamthinta, yathi kuye: Vuka udle.
Na ɔdaa dua no ase. Na ne nna mu no, ɔbɔfo bɛkaa no, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Sɔre na didi.”
6 Wasethalaza, khangela-ke, ekhanda lakhe iqebelengwana losiwe emalahleni, lesigxingi samanzi; wasesidla wanatha, waphinda walala.
Ɔhwɛɛ ne ho hyia huu brodo bi a wɔato no nnyansramma so, ne kuruwa a nsu wɔ mu. Enti odidii, nom nsu no, san daa bio.
7 Ingilosi yeNkosi yasifika ngokwesibili, yamthinta yathi: Vuka udle; ngoba uhambo lwakho lukhulu kakhulu kuwe.
Na Awurade bɔfo no san baa bio bɛkaa no kae se, “Sɔre na didi pii ka ho, na ɔkwan a ɛda wʼanim no ware.”
8 Wasevuka wadla wanatha, wahamba ngamandla alokhokudla insuku ezingamatshumi amane lobusuku obungamatshumi amane, waze wafika eHorebe intaba kaNkulunkulu.
Enti ɔsɔre didi nomee. Aduan no maa no nyaa ahoɔden a ɔde betwa kwan adaduanan, awia ne anadwo akɔ Horeb a ɛyɛ Onyankopɔn bepɔw no so.
9 Wasengena lapho ebhalwini, walala khona ubusuku. Khangela-ke, ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuye lathi kuye: Wenzani lapha, Elija?
Okoduu ɔbodan bi ho, na ɔdaa mu anadwo no. Na Awurade bisaa no se, “Elia, dɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha?”
10 Wathi: Bengitshiseka lokutshisekela iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamabandla, ngoba abantwana bakoIsrayeli basitshiyile isivumelwano sakho, badiliza amalathi akho, babulala abaprofethi bakho ngenkemba; yimi ngedwa engiseleyo, njalo badinga impilo yami ukuyisusa.
Elia buae se, “Mede ahoɔden asom Asafo Awurade Nyankopɔn. Nanso Israelfo abu apam a wɔne wo hyehyɛe no so, nam so abubu wʼafɔremuka nyinaa, akunkum wʼadiyifo a anka obiara. Me nko ara na maka, nanso wɔrehwehwɛ me akum me nso.”
11 Wasesithi: Phuma ume entabeni phambi kweNkosi. Khangela-ke, iNkosi yadlula. Umoya omkhulu olamandla wasudabula izintaba, waqhekeza amadwala phambi kweNkosi; kodwa iNkosi yayingekho emoyeni. Lemva komoya ukunyikinyeka komhlaba; kodwa iNkosi yayingekho ekunyikinyekeni komhlaba.
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Fi adi kogyina mʼanim wɔ bepɔw no so.” Na bere a Elia gyina hɔ no, Awurade bɛfaa hɔ, na mframa dennen bi bɔ sii bepɔw no mu. Na mframa no ano den no twitwaa abotan no mu. Nanso na Awurade nni mframa no mu. Mframa no akyi no, asase wosowee. Nanso na Awurade nni asasewosow no mu.
12 Lemva kokunyikinyeka komhlaba umlilo; kodwa iNkosi yayingekho emlilweni. Njalo emva komlilo ilizwi elincinyane elinyenyezayo.
Na asasewosow no akyi, ogya puei. Nanso na Awurade nni ogya no mu. Na ogya no akyi, nne bi a ɛyɛ bɔkɔɔ te sɛ nea wɔde ka asomsɛm bae.
13 Kwasekuthi uElija elizwa, wathandela ubuso bakhe ngesembatho sakhe, waphuma wema emlonyeni wobhalu. Khangela-ke, leza kuye ilizwi lathi: Wenzani lapha, Elija?
Elia tee nne no, ɔde nʼatade kataa nʼanim na ofi ɔbodan no mu, kogyinaa ano kwan no ano. Na nne bi bisae se, “Elia, dɛn na woreyɛ wɔ ha?”
14 Wathi: Bengitshisekela lokutshisekela iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamabandla, ngoba abantwana bakoIsrayeli basitshiyile isivumelwano sakho, badiliza amalathi akho, babulala abaprofethi bakho ngenkemba; yimi ngedwa engiseleyo, njalo badinga impilo yami ukuyisusa.
Obuaa bio se, “Mede ahoɔden asom Asafo Awurade Nyankopɔn. Nanso Israelfo abu apam a wɔne wo hyehyɛe no so, nam so abubu wʼafɔremuka nyinaa, akunkum wʼadiyifo a anka obiara. Me nko ara na maka, nanso wɔrehwehwɛ me akum me nso.”
15 INkosi yasisithi kuye: Hamba, ubuyele ngendlela yakho uye enkangala yeDamaseko; lapho usufikile ugcobe uHazayeli abe yinkosi phezu kweSiriya,
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no se, “San wʼakyi kɔ faako a wufi bae, na kɔ Damasko sare so. Na sɛ wudu hɔ a, sra Hasael ngo, si no Aramhene.
16 loJehu indodana kaNimshi umgcobe abe yinkosi phezu kukaIsrayeli, loElisha indodana kaShafati weAbeli-Mehola umgcobe abe ngumprofethi esikhundleni sakho.
Afei, sra Nimsi babarima Yehu, na ɔnyɛ Israelhene, na sra Safat babarima Elisa a ofi Abel-Mehola, na onsi wʼanan mu sɛ me diyifo.
17 Kuzakuthi-ke ozaphepha enkembeni kaHazayeli uJehu uzambulala, lozaphepha enkembeni kaJehu uElisha uzambulala.
Obiara a obeguan afi Hasael ho no, Yehu bekum no, na obiara a obeguan afi Yehu ho nso no, Elisa bekum no.
18 Kodwa ngitshiyile koIsrayeli abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, wonke amadolo angazanga aguqe kuBhali, lawo wonke umlomo ongazanga umange.
Eyinom akyi no, mɛbɔ nnipa afoforo mpem ason bi a wɔwɔ Israel a wɔnkotow Baal, mfew nʼano da, no ho ban.”
19 Wasesuka lapho, wafica uElisha indodana kaShafati; wayelima ngezipani zenkabi zamajogwe alitshumi lambili phambi kwakhe, yena wayelesetshumi lambili. UElija wesesedlula eceleni kwakhe, waphosela isembatho sakhe phezu kwakhe.
Na Elia fii hɔ kɔ kohuu Safat babarima Elisa, na ɔde anantwi mpamho dumien refuntum afuw a nʼankasa reka mpamho a ɛto so dumien no. Elia kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔtow nʼatade guu ne so.
20 Wasetshiya izinkabi, wagijima elandela uElija, wathi: Ake ngange ubaba lomama, besengikulandela. Wasesithi kuye: Hamba ubuyele, ngoba ngenzeni kuwe?
Elisa gyaw anantwi no hɔ, tuu mmirika dii Elia akyi, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ma menkɔkra mʼagya ne me na ansa na me ne wo akɔ.” Elia buae se, “San kɔ. Dɛn na mayɛ wo?”
21 Wasebuyela ekumlandeleni, wathatha isipani senkabi, wasihlaba, langezikhali zenkabi wapheka inyama yazo, wayinika abantu, bayidla. Wasesuka elandela uElija, wamsebenzela.
Afei, Elisa san kɔɔ anantwi no ho kokunkum wɔn. Ɔde funtumfiri no ho nnua no yɛɛ nnyansin de noaa nam no de maa mmarima no ma wɔwee. Afei ɔkɔ kodii Elia akyi ma ɔbɛyɛɛ ne somfo.
